Healthcare is something people do not want and may not need for years. Thousands of dollars are wasted each year on general mass media advertising. Healthcare purchasing is a social process and an emotional one. Often it comes down to the “experience” as told through key influencers. These influencers can be loyalists or protagonists.

- Give something of value away
- Use the internet strategically
- Bring together communities
- Adopt causes
- Deliver information in bit size chunks
- Extend your brand through complementary products and services
- Design and maintain strong customer relationship management databases
The result:
- More market share and revenue
- Less cost through wasteful marketing practices
- Lifetime customer value
- Emotional connection
- Brand marketing by loyalists
- Increased staff satisfaction, retention and recruitment
